FULFORDGATE put themselves in a strong position to retain the York John Smith’s Ladies' Darts League first division title thanks to a demolition job at Edinburgh Arms.
Donna Lynes saved the whitewash for Edinburgh as captain Michelle Britton (3x100) led from the front in Gate's 8-1 win.
Title rivals Acomb Cons Club struggled with their finishes before snatching victory over Burnholme thanks to a clean sweep in the pairs.
Jane Dobson, Jean West, Sarah Jackson and Marj Pearson won for Burnholme, but Tina Platt and Natalie Bosworth replied in the singles and Platt/Bev Harton later took the decider.
Fulfordgate head Acomb by three points at the summit.
Elsewhere, Julie Oliver gamed in 25 darts as Leeman ‘B’ won at Slipper to boost hopes of escaping the drop, while Sharon Mountain/Sue Gillon combined to secure a 5-4 win for Severus ‘B’ against Marcia.
Clockhouse kept their noses in front at the top of division two after a tight win at Puss N Boots.
